I have a few points of advice for you...Keep doing what your doing until you have specific goals. In the meantime, get a few massages and add some Glutamine to your post work out regiment. If your still sore, try 400-800 mg's of Ibuprofen for no more than 2 weeks at a time (2400mg per day max). Ibuprofen is hard on your stomach/ intestines (bloat, gas and even ulcers at higher doses). if that doesn't work...take a few days off or even a week or two. Rest is your friend! Hit the jaccuzzi...Good luck!

I would start including creatine in your supplements. Creatine is known to reduce muscle soreness and make them stronger.

I great post work supplement is After Glow, which has some great ingredients which will help keep your energies up and keep the body ready for the next workout.
